Standard & Poor's Downgrades Lebanon's Rating to 'Selective Default'

W460

Standard & Poor's Global Ratings downgraded Lebanon's sovereign debt in foreign currency to a "selective default" from (CC / C), warning that talks on debt restructuring may be complicated and prolonged.

Standard & Poor's said it would likely cancel this designation whenever Lebanon exchanges any debt or activates a restructuring agreement between Lebanon and its creditors.
